Classical massage

Classical or Swedish massage is one of the best-known types of massage in the world. It is a manual treatment therapy for the musculoskeletal system that uses pressure, traction, shaking and tapping to affect the body. The effect extends from the treated area, for example the arm, over the whole body and also on the psyche. The client becomes calmer and can relax.

Applications for classical massage

• Tension and cramps
• Neck and back pain
• Headaches
• Diseases/disorders of the musculature
• Joint or spinal complaints
• Relief of adhesions and scars
• Relaxation of the muscles
• Improved blood circulation
• Relieves stress
• Relaxing and calming

Manual lymphatic drainage according to Dr. Vodder

In the 1930s in France, Dr. Emil Vodder and his wife Astrid noticed enlarged cervical lymph nodes in many patients who came for treatment. For this reason, they developed manual lymphatic drainage. Using pumping, circular and pushing movements, they were able to drain and release these congestions. The principle of lymphatic drainage is to release lymph congestion using slow, rhythmic movements, completely pain-free.

Effect of manual lymphatic drainage
1. Stimulates the lymphangion motor function. This means that the lymph flow is increased and more lymph fluid is removed.
2 Detoxifying effect. This means, for example, that the swollen arm is decongested and drained. Depending on the type of oedema, the massage pressure must be adjusted according to the extent of the swelling.
3. pain relief during manual lymphatic drainage
4. has a relaxing and calming effect.
5. the musculature is influenced. Acidified, hardened muscles are detoxified thanks to the increased metabolic transport. This results in rapid, painless regeneration of the muscle fibers.
6. The smooth muscles of the intestinal wall are stimulated, cramps are released and intestinal activity is stimulated.

The Dorn method (according to Dieter Dorn)

The spine is the protective sheath of our spinal cord, the central control organ for all our bodily functions. The nerves emanating from the spine supply all organs and tissues. If one or more vertebrae are displaced, blocked or misaligned, the corresponding organs can no longer be optimally supplied and disorders such as migraines, discomfort, digestive problems and joint pain can occur, even without pain.

The aim is to realign displaced vertebrae and joints and thus correct functional disorders of the spine. With this method, the vertebrae are realigned by applying lateral pressure to the spinous process or transverse process. This is gentle on the ligaments, muscles and tendons of the spine.

With gentle Dorn alignment, the spine can be straightened in relatively few sessions and many seemingly therapy-resistant conditions can be addressed and corrected.
